UH,AMBERLAIN'S IMPUDENCE,

Il has long been quite patent to every
close observer Of current affairs, re.
marks the Quebec Telegraph, that III
all her dealings with Canada, England
has sought to subordinate the Canadian
people to her own selfish interests, just
as she maintains in Ireland that iniqui-
tous course OF persecution which is sup.
posed to be the interests of the main"
tenance of landlord tyranny. This
line Of policy has been so marked in re-
!ation to Mr.. Chamberlain's mission,
and to the manner in which he started
out upon it, as to attract no small
share Of attention in this country. a
prominent organ of public opinion pub
lished in Philadelphia thus refers to
the matter:
".Mr. Cnaraberlain's last hours in
England were watched closely, to dis
GOVERN he would say anything to soften
the effect of his preposterous attack
upon our American citizens Of Irish
birth. 1t is believed that the Tories
would warn him tbathe must explain, ,
ifnot retract. But nothing of the sort
occurred. The management OF the
Canadian problem is subordinated by
Goth Of the English parties to the ques-
tions of home politics, The Tories ac
cept his outbreak against the Irish as
a part of the general campaign in
Great Britain against Home Rule.
withoutheeding the effect it may have
upon Canadian interests. It is said
that Mr.. Gladstone takes a higher view.
and ardently desires the success OF the
conference. This we should have ex-
pected. This utter indifference of the
present rulers of England to the inter
ests of Canada must be an inspiritiDg
spectacle to Canadian loyalists. It is
one of scores Of instances in which this
generation Of Canadians have seen their
affairs treated as a Jride in comparison
With English interests, prejudices and
party squabbles. And even now Mr..
tells them that CONNER
;ial Union would destroy their value as
IN English dependency. 1t is only for
heir trade that she cherisees her colo
1ies. The Canadia.ls did not think so
when they sent their boatmen to row
;he British troops up the Nile. The
Aurtralians did not think SO when they
ent their contingent of troops to rein
orce England in the same region. But
Mr. Chamberlain is nearer to head
quarters and assures the Canadians
hat is so.''
The Telegraph is forced to acquiesce
n.this conclusion, and adds that Eng
and cares but precious little about |
interests as long as English
are served If the generalt
'ampaign against II ONE Rule can be

TIE GREAT IRISH LEADER.

2lst inst. He was dressed in a thick
tweed suit, with a thick rcd cardigan
! jacket over his waistcoat He has al.

Thompson, who has been treating him

ate, as otherwise he will be unable to
bear the labors of the coming session OF
Parliament, MIR. Parnell, Oh having
his attention drawn to Michael Dav-
tits speech at Stepaside last Sunday,
said II do not think it would become
me to criticiss or approve the manage
rnent OF the plan Of campaign. I was
not consulted at it's initiation and have
since been unable, owing to the state Of
my health, to take any active part in
politics outside Of parliament. Those
who are OF the spot and are actively
engaged are the best judges Of what
their own honor and the. inserests of
the country require. Mr. Davitt is in
q different position. His opinion is en-
titled to respect, coming from one who
is in Ireland and who is man Of singu-
larly remarkable courage. who never
shrank from the consequences CT his
words or acts. But l do not gather
that Mr.. Davitt did criticise the plan.
He rather, seemed to be apprehensive
that things might be misunderstood in
America. Respecting the general sit
uation I may say that, in my judgment.
a more feeble or inert government new
er held the reins in Ireland. They are
teaching Irishmen most disastrous
lesson by their bungling incapacity,
teaching that the law may be success
fully defed. For the law, as recently
constructed by the Enthusiastically i'll
the House OF Commons is daily detied,
and with impunity, by thousands of
members ct suppressed branches of the
League and by every Nationalist news
Eaper editor in Ireland. In fact, one
of the extraordinary results Of the CO.
ercion act and firm and resolute gov
is that for every otfanse
against the law committed before the
passage of the coercion bill, hundreds
are committed now. [ leave it to you
to say whether Ireland S respect for the
Imperial Parliament, the possibility of
her continued government by the same
agency, or the sol;dity Of the union is
likely to be Increased, OF whether this
administrative incapacity does not rem
